“Traditionally we have seen 30% of our throughput volumes being transited to Iraq. It is now down to about 2.5%. We anticipate that 2016 will be a difficult year but we do hope that there will be some improvement in Iraq,” says Jeppe Nymann Jensen, CEO of Aqaba Container Terminal (ACT).

“My father’s vision was always to produce a great wine of Jordan and he always believed that this country could produce one of the greatest wines in the world. I don’t think he is mistaken,” says Omar Zumot, the Winemaker (Zumot Wines, Saint George).

In Jordan we produce about 1 million bottles of wine every year,” says Omar Zumot, the Winemaker (Zumot Wines, Saint George).

“There are also other products that are being imported from abroad that are of low quality materials and will need annual maintenance and that have a very short lifespan. This is an important issue for us because at the end of the day it will damage the reputation of solar energy in Jordan,” explains Samer Hanania, Deputy General Manager of Hanania Energy.
